Description

Leaves are compound, with leaflets arranged in threes (perennial species) or pinnately (mostly annuals). The leaflet at the end of each leaf is transformed into a branched tendril.

Flowers are heart-shaped and have four pale yellow to orange petals. The outer petals are pouched at the base and bent slightly outwards at the tip.

The fruit is a capsule with two valves, dehiscent in most species, but indehiscent in D. scandens.[1]

gollark: It has great tooling, too.
gollark: Rust (reset the timer, gibson) has its whole "fearless concurrency" thing, and is very performant and safe at the cost of, well, being harder to work with because you have to explicitly reason about lifetimes.
gollark: .NET is really fast and good for webapps.
gollark: D is also a thing which exists, although it has less of an ecosystem than Go.
gollark: F#'s pretty cool if you like .NET.
